UPDATE ON THE GARDEN

Radish Detail

Amazing that despite everything, we're still not through yet with the gardening. Above is a detail of some maturing radishes, ready to be harvested as soon as possible. They're popping out of the ground, begging to be picked! Amazing that they can get so big. Our carrots are doing brilliantly, drowing large with leafs. Hopefully we'll have carrots popping up soon as well. Finally, our topsy-turvey have granted us a miracle- strawberries!

Those peas are so happy

Even more amazing is how well the strawberries are doing! On tasting it the whole class agreed- the strawberries tasted beautiful, sweet and tangy and nothign ever tasted in the store! Perhaps something about organic grow-your-own food really is some kind og magic. I'm hungry just thinking about it! Along with our lettuce and brocoli, this garden looks beautiful in every way. I can't wait for our next major harvest, maybe we'll get tomatoes? They're flowering right now as I type!  The pas are doing splendis, those trellises really came in handy. I can't imagine how those things would grow without them!

Keep up the work, Village School!
